At least 1,400 private charging points have been set up across the city, mostly by housing societies, in the last year since Delhi’s charging/swapping infrastructure action plan 2022-25 was rolled out, according to the Delhi electric vehicle (EV) cell.
Officials from the Delhi transport department said that with an increased push towards switching to EV in the past year, many individuals, housing societies, and cab fleet operators are opting to set up EV charging infrastructure, even though the number of EVs in the area is still not high. The action plan is part of Delhi EV policy 2020.
Officials said that while there were some private charging points, no residential society in the city set up a charging point or station till last year.
